    As a French teacher, I can highly recommend this video. It lays out the material in a sensible way, for instance by noting the exceptions as soon as the rule was introduced.

    Great video! The liaison can be so tricky for us non-natives. I always mess up when words start with an "h" like les haricots verts. I hear people do a liaison and say lezzz haricots so that's how I learned it but it's not correct. Sometimes it's hard to know what's correct when even French people make mistakes!

    • @gerardogavilantocaimasa3141
      @gerardogavilantocaimasa3141 3 роки тому +4

      That is because there are two "h" in French. the "h muet" (liaison is required, exemple les hommes) and the "h aspiré" (liaison is forbidden, as in the cases of :les haricots, les héros. The "h aspiré" bans the liaison and the elision. That's why we say in singular le haricot, le héros and not l'haricot or l'héros.

      Though the rules only become second nature over time with practice and use, it’s really not that that exotic or strange a language phenomenon. We English speakers use liaisons too whenever we contract words: don’t, can’t, shouldn’t, I’d, he’d.
      For some reason contractions in English are considered improper, “lazy” and are never or rarely used in formal writing, though this rule has been relaxed considerably in the last few decades, e.g., compare articles in newspapers or magazines written in the 1950s and even into the 1980s with those written today.
      Perhaps like many other things in life, the French are more accepting of human nature. To wit:
      _England has always been disinclined to accept human nature._

    As an English speaker of French, may I point out something which is very difficult to get our mouths and tongues to do?
    It's concerning your very first example of a liaison: un grand arbre.
    The usually silent d in 'grand' is pronounced because of the liaison BUT to our English ears we have to make a soft 't' sound NOT a hard 'd' sound. This is so difficult to do.
    I have been in a class of advanced students in French and we all had a) trouble with even knowing that we had to make the liaison and b) we all found it's so hard to make the d sound come out of our mouths as an unaspirated t. The position of the tongue is the key to success.

    French founders had no idea about what the goal of a writing system is. these systems are made to help people to read and write not to make them disable in reading and writing. their writing system has a very strong tendency to ambiguity instead of clarity. it seems they wished that nobody can neither read nor write.
    they had to hire a german to make a real system for them and save their people from facing this madness every single day.

    “Delay of the sound” is not confusing for people who speak English well. In English, a similar rule also exists. If the former word ends with a consonant and the later word starts with a vowel, you will "connect" them. For example, "the trial ended in a guilty verdict". "Ended" and "in" must be connected. The pronunciation is "ende din". It's a little bit different from the French, but I think English speakers could easily understand the rule.
    However, the liaison in general is really tricky for French learners. The major issue is that most consonants in the end of the words wouldn't be pronunced. But when you do liaison, you will have to pronunce it. It's really really confusing. In English, the last consonant will be pronunced anyway, so it's natural to "connect" the sound.

    • @inkyguy
      @inkyguy 3 роки тому +1

      👎🏽 Evonne p, no, “ended in” properly enunciated has no liaison in English, unless it is lazy English. Each word is spoken separately and distinctly; there is no prescribed liaison or slurring of the syllables between these two words.
